As examples of fly-tipping go, this has to be one of the most unusual.

A total of eight tubs of brightly-coloured sweets were spotted on a Bradford street today.

The Strawberry Bonbons, labelled Grannies Choice, were dumped at a bus stop on John Street, Oastler Market.

One of the boiled sweet tubs was even left on the bench inside the bus stop.

But there were no clues left at the site as to whom had dumped the sweet-tasting items at the bus stop.

One passer-by said: "I've seen plenty of examples of fly-tipping in my time, but this one was a bit odd and just leaves you wondering.... 'why?'

"It looked a bit bizarre really."
